Why were women objectified in the name of "entertainment" to the troops?

7 posts in this topic

Until recent years, the women were used as eye candy to entertain the troops. The women used to wear skimpy clothes and would do sexy poses to entertain the men in the crowd. The women would hug, kiss and even let the men carry them to "thank" them. I get that the troops defend the country, and WWE wants to dedicate a show to them, but why were the women objectified in the name of "entertainment"? Why couldn't the women entertain the troops with serious hard hitting matches? Am I the only one who was confused by this?

They obviously were. And protecting the country doesn't warrant you feeling anyone up (@them "carrying" the women) or getting eye candy at the expense of the other women. You want eye candy, get a magazine. This isn't really any different than how they were treated any other time anyway.

However, the women looked like they had fun with it from what I can remember. So if that wasn't acting and they were really enjoying themselves, that's all that matters.
